Orson Condos - Updated Occupancy Notices
If you bought a pre-construction property at Orson Condos in Calgary, then you should have just received a notice from Truman informing you that construction is ahead of schedule.
They want to move your occupancy (closing) date up by about a year:
Current Closing Date Range: June 1, 2027 to Dec 31, 2028
New Closing Date Range: May 1, 2026 to Dec 30, 2027
➡️ You do not have to accept this.

What are the implications?
✅ If you accept the new date:
Expect your closing date to be in May/June 2026 (in about 6 months).
Your Rental Guarantee will start as of your closing date (but your unit may be rented a few months in advance according to the terms of the rental guarantee).
✅If you do not accept the new date:
Expect your closing date to be in June 2027 (this gets you about an extra year before you are required to close).
Your unit will be rented as soon as it is completed (i.e. May 2026) but your Rental Guarantee will not start until you close on the unit. During this time, Truman keeps the rent payments from your unit until you close on your property and you will not receive any compensation for the wear and tear.
⚠️In my opinion, there is no benefit to waiting, other than you don't have to close for an extra year (which can be helpful if you need more time for the down-payment or need more income or to fix bad credit). However mortgage rules are changing in 2026 which could make qualifying for a mortgage on a rental property more difficult, so it could be advantageous to get your approval now.
Please inform Truman of your choice
You have until November 17, 2025 to respond with your decision:
If you decide to accept the new date, initial & sign the notice via DocuSign
If you decide to decline, please open the DocuSign, choose “other actions” and decline the DocuSign envelope so they can track your intentions.
If you receive any other notices from Truman, DO NOT SIGN THEM without checking with me first.
